Notes, queries, and musings about my research on Frederick Douglass, Sally Hemings, and Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House series, among other things. This blog was formerly titled "Frederick Douglass: In Progress" and "Frederick Douglass's Women." Currently working on an introduction to Sally Hemings for undergraduates.

The Fourth of July
Douglass gave this speech to the Rochester Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society on July 5, 1852.
I have to agree with Julia, it is a great speech. Thanks for posting it!
